lol. I know the answer, but I cheated. I'll let someone else get it.

I guess, technically from my own rules, I can post another riddle now.


Riddle #3
You have a bucket of Coke and a bucket of Pepsi. You take a cup of Coke and pour it into the bucket of Pepsi. After thoroughly mixing, you then take a cup of this mixture and pour it back into the Coke bucket.

Question: Is there more Coke in the Pepsi or is there more Pepsi in the Coke?
NOTE: Two Riddles Are Open


-TNC

They are equal. The coke has disolved into the Pepsi, so when you put the Pepsi mixture back into the coke, it evens it out.

Riddle #3: They both have the same amount of the other.

Pretend a bucket is equal to two cups (both buckets have the same amount of liquid). Putting a cup of Coke in the Pepsi gives you a liquid that's 2/3 Pepsi and 1/3 Coke (1 bucket of Pepsi + 1/2 bucket of Coke).

Taking a cup out of the second bucket gives you a mixture that's 1/3 Coke and 2/3 Pepsi (because they were thoroughly mixed).

Pouring that into the first bucket gives you a liquid that's 1/2 Coke (the original amount left in the first bucket), plus 1/6 Coke (half of a third because you're pouring in half a bucket of liquid), plus 2/6 Pepsi. 2/6 = 1/3, so it must be 2/3 Coke and 1/3 Pepsi.

That means 1/3 of bucket one is Pepsi, and 1/3 of bucket two is Coke.

Now, There's one Riddle still up, so another Riddle can be posted.

Basically what I was saying, only you put down the math.

Here's another riddle.

Riddle #4: A man lives on the 15th floor of his apartment building. Every morning he rides the elevator down to the lobby to go to work. Every night he gets home from work and rides the same elevator up ten floors, than takes the stairs the remaining five flights. Why?


Answered: He's a dwarf and can't reach past the 10th floor button.

 

[Spider-Fan]

Ummm...the elevator only goes up 10 floors?

I don't think this is the answer, really.

 

[wiegeabo]

I don't think this is the answer, really.

Well, he takes the elevator down all 15 floors in the morning. So it must be able to go up 15 floors to get to him.

Or does he?

 

[Yurka]

[TNC9852002]

OMG. I know this one too! I can't remember...Isn't the man like, a janitor or an elevator operator or something?

[Asteroid-Man]

the coke one is BS.

Let's say the bucket is 4 cups.
you put 100% Coke cup into Pepsi.

Then you pour the mixture of 75% Pepsi and 25% coke into Coke.

That means you have more coke in the pepsi mixture. Oh wait, that leaves 75% cup of coke in the pepsi I get it now.

 

[Asteroid-Man]

How do I know I'm broke? Cause I don't have enough money for my own house so I am sleeping in my car outside the parking space at the Hotel!

The Hotel thing-> It takes all of his money to stay at the hotel.

It's one of those.

 

[TNC9852002]

OMG. I wanna answer the first hotel riddle so badly..

There is now only one riddle still open.

 

[batman11]

HAHA!!

if thats really the answer im gonna piss myself

It is though. t:

He rides it down because the lobby button is easy for him to push at his height. However, the number 10 button in the elevator is the highest he can reach, so he has to walk the extra 5 floors. The poor guy can't reach number 15.
